 Properties of Cathode rays:

1.       Cathode rays travel in straight lines.

2.       These rays are deflected by electric field. This is obvious because these rays are nothing but electrons.

3.       These rays travel normally from the surface of cathode.

4.       The direction of these rays is independent from the position of the anode.

5.       These rays are independent of the nature of the gas and electrodes placed in the discharge tube.

6.       Cathode rays possess high kinetic energy due to high speed, therefore they can exert high mechanical pressure.

7.       Cathode rays produce heat when they fall on metal therefore the temperature of the metal rises.

8.       These rays are also deflected by magnetic field.

9.       These rays produce fluorescence.

10.   They can affect a photographic plate.

11.   These rays have small ionizing power.

12.   Cathode rays travel with a high speed varies from 1/30th to 1/10 of speed of light.

13.   These rays are also used to produce x –rays

14.   They have some penetrating power.

15.   Cathode rays may behave like waves. They exhibit the process of interference and diffraction.

Answer:

Properties of the cathode rays:

1) Travels in a straight lines.

2) Made up of negatively charged particles called electrons.

3) When cathode rays are focused on a thin metal foil, it gets heated up to incandescence.

4) Cathode rays consists of material particles.

5) Cathode rays ionize the gas through which they passed.
